They Obey the Various Bugle Calls and
Can be Relied on In Battle.
Il was only a young subaltern when
the war broke out, but was thorough
artillery tactician. My highest ambi-
ton was to have light battery of my
own, and had no difficulty in secur-
ing light battery of New York volun-
teer artillery. 1t was splendidly
equipped. There were six ten-pound
Parrot guns and twelve as fine horses
for guns and caissons as ever went into
the field. The men were so green that
they did not know the nluzzle of piece
from the breech, and the horses were
fresh from the farms, many of them not
even broken to harness. l at once COM
menced drilling my new command, and
in an incredibly short time it was pro-
nounced ready by the chief of artillery
for active service in the field. That
battery became my pride, and its prof.
cheney in maneuvering do not believe
was ever excclled. l believed then,
and still think, that there is not pret-
tier military command than a light ar
tillery.
1T was the first battery that had
ever drilled from its inception. soon
found that the horses learned sooner
than the men. This was especially the
case respecting the bugle-calls. Just
as with the men, too, some of the horses
learned faster than others. Some of
them had better ears for music, too;
and, while there were those who would
obey any bugle-call after executing the
maneuver few times, others, just like
the men, would never learn the mean
ing of the notes. The most proficient
horses were always placed in the lead.
More than once I have dismounted the
men. and then with the bugle put the
battery through the most intricate man
euvers, such as ,counter-marching at
close intervals at gallop without a
rider on the horses. l had also taught
the two lead teams something not con-
tanned in the tactics, that was to lie
down in the traces at q certain bugle-
call. This little trick saved my guns at
the battle of Fair Oaks, on the 3lst day
of May, 1862 The lead teams had been
ordered to lie down aSboon as the firing
began. The enemy's fire was high, but
not far enough above them to save the
pole teams. They were struck down.
but when we were forced to leave the
field there were enough of lead horses
to pull the guns off All through that
terrible sheet of flame and lead those
horses lay down, not very quietly, OF
course, and when the bugle-call sounded
close to their ears, so as to be heard
above the din of battle, they sprang up
to their feet, and, many of them rider
less, executed the order to timber up
and retreat. ''-Louisviile Courier-Jour-

Its Perfection TO BE Found In Russia end
Not In the United States.
When we talk of 'spread-eagleism"
we are generally thinking of the United
States, but the real spread-eagieism is
that, not Of the American Republic, but
of the Russian Empire. The Russians
habitually talk of the time when they
will be masters of the whole world, and
If, instead of writing the facts of our
time, were tempted to prophesy con-
cerning the next century should have
to admit that, if we exclude America
and Australia and contine our thoughts
to the Old World alone, it is at least
conceivable that their dreams should
one day come true. The only foreigner
who is known to the Russian peasantry
is the German. and the name for Ger
man and for foreigner with the peasant
is the same, and the hatred of the
"dumb men," as they call their Ger
man neighbors, is intense. The peas

a DOLEFUL DRUGGIST.
He Tells of His Benefactions to Humanity
and Bemoans Its Ingratitude.


20, yes, drugs have come down in
price a great deal in the last year
or two," said an uptown dispenser
of health-restoring compounds as he
glanced sadly at the price list in front
of his door. 1.-The bottom has fallen
out of every thing. Not only standard
drugs but proprietary medicines have
been so reduced in price that there is
scarcely any profit left in the business.
Medicines that we used to get 81. 25 for
now sell for 75 cents; dollar medicines
60 for so or 65 cents; 25-cent COM
pounds for Is cents, and so on.
"Of course that's all right for the
public, but how about us? Nobody
stops to think that besides supplying
drugs and medicines, saving lives at all
hours of the night, spreading health
broadcast by dispensing pure soda
water and other things for which we
get some little return, we are an indis-
pensable public convenience in ways
that never bring us a cent of profit.
For instance, here and everywhere
else, except down town, every body
who waits for street car waits for
it in drug store. Everybody who
wants to borrow newspaper or
get light for a cigar, or look at direc-
tory, OF use telephone, OF inquire
about the family who moved away
from the house three blocks away year
before last, or put up free advertise
ment, or write a postal card. goes
straight for drug store. Then look at
the people who save doctors bills.
They come in here, describe their symp-
toms, tell how sick they are and want
to know what to do about it. We tell
them to soak their feet, wear woolen
socks, and take dose of salts or what
ever else they need, and they thank us
and buy postage stamp. Why I've

there will be between them and Ger
many war compared with which, their
soldiers say, that of 1870 was child S
play, and that if Germany wins this
will not be the end. but that war after
war will follow until Germany is de-
stroyed. This feeling is to some extent
held in check by the Russian Court, al

Lunatics in Russia.

DIR. Kovaleffski, one of the most re-
nowned of Russian physicians, professor
at the Kharkoff University, has made
known some serious facts relative to
lunacy in Russia. According to the
learned professor the number of lunatics
in Russia amount to at least 100000.
Only one-tenth can be accommodated
in asylums, or elsewhere obtain atten-
ton. DR.. Kovaleffski says that the treat
ment of the inmates is for the greater
part defective. Rich patients alone can
obtain careful attention.; the INDECENT
are too often i'll treated. The number
of really skillful doctors in the asylum
is restricted, and rational treatment is
almost out of the question. The keep
ers are for the most part rude men, who
maltreat the unfortunates if not bribed
to kindness by relatives. The nourish-
ment is insufficient and Of bad quality.
Thousands of lunatics who can not be
accommodated inpublic or private asy-
lums walk about at large without re-
ceiving the slightest care. One meets
them everywhere on the roads in the
country, often i'll used by the heartless,
and then taking their revenge by setting
houses on fire or mutilating children

The Louisville Jockey club has COM
pleted arrangements whereby in the
spring of 1889 there will be run at the
course a race of a mile and quarter for
a stake of $50, 900, called the West Ken
lucky stake, perhaps the richest ever
run in America. The summary is as
follows: Fifty thousand dollars for
yearlings, two and three-year-olds on
January l, 1886; $40,O 900 to the winner,
"a. 900 to second, and 81, 500 to the third

Rocky Mountains?" l find it in the
narrative of Pierre Gaultier de Varen-

three sons, the 1st January, 174S, first
sighted the magnificent range. They
called it "Montagnes de Pierres Brill
